I… love you platonically also too indeed?

I do love the phrase “smacked ass.”

Or “mule-kicked.”

Ok, dude, I think I love you. In a wholly platonic kind of way. And I have never heard anyone but my mother and myself utter the phrase “smacked ass.”

Word up, Shadow Freak. Though, let’s be fair: George Bush accomplished a lot during those eight years.

I mean, a lot of bullshit, sure, but that’s still an impressive accomplishment. It took a lot of work to punt our country in the nuts over and over again.

Wow! Seriously… I’m not into politic (way less American as I am Canadian) but hell… you’ve said it! People are always complaining about stuff they (most of them) can’t even do!
From what I see, the man (Obama) as done more in 9 month then someone I won’t name has done in 8 years!
But the attitude makes me think of people here in Quebec. When someone from here gets big success, we just find something against this person. For example: people have complained about Celine Dion when she got to Vegas! She was “betraying her origins”. Bull-shit! I think those complaining about Obama’s Nobel is of the same kind.
I find it weird that people HERE in Quebec are more happy for your president then some Americans. Weird… really.

To be fair, even he seemed surprised. =P
That doesn’t make your point less valid. I think the Onion actually summed it up fairly well with its headline the day after the election which read, “Black Man Given Nation’s Worst Job.”

That is the most painfully funny thing I’ve read in a long time. Kudos.

I adore the smacking the driver analogy.

If you don’t mind, I might repost this with attribution and a link?

SNL, by the way, was traditionally unfunny (with one of the slackest, laziest, shittiest sketches ever to open the show) — but, I did catch Bill Hader’s James Carville impersonation this morning.

Worth watching –

(partial transcript:)

“SETH MEYERS: What about Rush Limbaugh who claims that Obama sold out America to win the prize?

JAMES CARVILLE (Bill Hader): Rush Limbaugh, OK. Come on, Seth. How does a fella like that have fans? Hey, you want to listen to this drug addict? Don’t worry, he mean and fat!

Come on. How you gonna call him ‘Rush’? I mean that’s a terrible name for a slow, fat man, Seth.

The only place he’s rushin’ to is Quiznos, asking about free double meat and wavin’ some coupon he made on a home computer. He should win the Nobel Piece of Pie! Piece of Pie… That’s funny.

Now look, Seth, I mean, I can admit, I mean, I got the opposite problem. I’m too skinny. I’m all angles, Seth. I elbowed a, a someone in a pick-up basketball game and sliced their stomach open.

MEYERS: The Democratic National Committee went so far as to compare Rush Limbaugh to the Taliban. Is that fair?

CARVILLE: Uh, no. Uh, fair? No, Seth, no. You can’t call someone a terrorist when there are actual terrorists out there. I mean, that’s like when people call actors geniuses. And you know there’s real geniuses, right?

MEYERS: You have anything else you’d like to add, James?

CARVILLE: Oh, I’d just like to say to President Obama, ‘Congratulations.’ I mean, it seems like everyone else forgot to say that. I mean, the man won a *Nobel Prize.* I mean, that ain’t his fault. I mean, when I’m playin’ Monopoly and I win the beauty contest people don’t yell, ‘Hey, you can’t win a beauty contest, Crypt Keeper. You ugly!’”
